    Memes, they aren't something that anyone knowledgeable enough of the internet would consider malicious. They are everywhere and they are constantly created, downloaded, and shared. 
    
   But it turns out, even memes can be scary. Recently on Twitter, suspicious accounts started posting memes that were hosts to malicious code, utilizing it in this manner, the malware was able to bypass all security measures. 

 As of the time of this writing, the accounts that posted the memes have been suspended, yet its unknown how many computers were breached by the malware.



 That was the news folks, have a good rest of the week, and stay safe out there.
